" Lord WELLINGTON has been some time -ab sent : it is given out that he is not gone-to - Lisbon; but to Villa Franca, which is ,within six leagues of Li4Jon. The objeC:l of his journey is said to be to inspe& some new works in that neighbourhood. "'Our - accOnnts from Cadiz describe the French arrii , before that place at 65,000 men,• and it is said they occupy St. Mary's,. from- which place Cadiz is supplied whit water. By,a letter received from-the Zealous, of 64 guns, it appears that Admiral PuR.

Reports have been circulated of an Armistice; and even of a Peace, to which it would be imprudiant to give crediC he Exchange vn Augsburgh is 431 and 43?, a thing unexampled on our Exchange. The Gazette of Vienna has ceased to announce the price of eatables—they ad yance as the paper is depreciated ; the pound of sugar is worth nearly i i florins. The . Court has offered, it is said, to re-purchase the Hebrew, Arabic, and Persian manuscripts which have been removed from the Library of Vienna to that of Paris. CZ ERNI GEORGES, WIIQ had proposed the elec.' lion of a King, of Servia, and who was going to Russia on a mission, has been prevled Upon by the majority of the Servtan Senate to abandon that de sign, and to remain at Belgrade. Our Court, by mating great efforts, has been able to discharge the remainder of the war cofitributions due to France, partly in reacly.money, and partly in letters of exchange on Augsburg. Hungary has fur nished'a great quantity of the specie advanced in these payments, and the natural consequence is, that the small quantity of silver which is now found there gains on the paper in .an alarming proportion. After the changes which are about . to take pike in the organization of the Austrian Monarchy, it. will be composed in futere of . .the following pro -4/incese each of which will have a civil and militi•ry.

Tran sylvania, with - the Bannat, and the distries adjqin it-% to the frontiers of Turkey ; 6. Gallicia; 7.

ULM, JAN. 3.--The GaZette of -this elty, one of the most esteemed journals ih Germany, contains some very curious details of the processes against the Prussian 'Generals, accesed of having fade! its 1805 . Tt.v suasl.".••fir passed on General WAI.TENSLEUEt4, Commaitdani of Magdeburg, has made a great sensation at Ber lin. This old General has not only been punish. ed by the loss of all his offices, and the con fiscation of all his property, but he nas been con demned to imprisonment for life in irons, with an allowance of only eig! , :t sons pei day. It is hoptd, front the integrity and justice ut the new Great Chancellor, M. - Ds BETINIE, '111.4 he will make pub lic the motives for . this rigorous sentence. There still rernairt many Officers whose processes are not finished. Colonel MASSENDACLI author of sevel at much-eAeenied Military publications, is among the number. He has Untortun...tel) published • too. many memoirs , to justify' himself an x accuse others, which-is not the way to conciliate public opinion. lie continually demands to ,be tried, but he has prudently retired into the bosom of his fatuity, on a small estate hich he possesses in the Duchy of Warsaw.,- This officer, employed suitably to his talents in the staff of the army, and not at the, bead of the troops, ma) still be very usciul to the ProssianManarch,y. Another process has likewise attracted public attention ; it is that of the Pisuce of KUTZFELD. It is pro Posed to condemn him to pay for 20,000 muskets, and many other military eff-..cts, which he did not sate from the arsenal of Berlin, though lie had received a formal order front the Kini, to .remove them to - a,place of security. The Prince of KUTZFELD alleges in his justifica tion,, that the French did not allow him time to ex-. ecnte the order of the King; _but this excuse is not admissible. This Prince has removed from Berlin, but he posSesses in Silesia estates sufficiently consi derable to satisfy the payments demanded of him. VIENNA, JAN.
